Members Appreciation Round
The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs are excited to officially launch Members Appreciation Round as we lead into our home-ground clash against the Broncos at Belmore Sports Ground this Saturday, July 15.
In celebration and acknowledgement of our supporters, Members can look forward to exclusive content, special discounts and sponsor offers, giveaways and competitions to thank them for their ongoing support and loyalty to the Pack.
MEMBERS ROUND
Members Round was first launched in honour of our '18th man' - our Members - dating back as far as 2007.
In 2007, the Bulldogs retired the number 18 jersey in honour of our Members and fans, and have since continued the tradition by dedicating a Round to them.
Captain at the time, Andrew Ryan explained: "Every week we have 17 players named in the first grade side, but when we play at home it feels like we have an extra player with us – an 18th player. That player is our fans.
"The support and lift we get from our supporters is like having an extra man ready to help us out," he said.
Each week when the Team List is announced, there is a void in the 18th position. Rather the number 18 jersey spot is reserved for Members and fans.
THANK YOU TO OUR MEMBERS
As the Bulldogs prepare to play this special Round dedicated to members and fans, the players, coaches, staff, management and Board want to extend their thanks to all of the Bulldogs supporters and their families.
"After bouncing back against the Rabbitohs on Saturday night, we can’t wait to put up the ‘SOLD OUT’ sign up at Belmore this weekend," said Bulldogs CEO Aaron Warburton.
"By playing this special Round at Belmore Sports Ground in honour of our Members, wearing specially designed jerseys that feature the names of many of those from our Pack, it is just one small way that we can say thank you to them and demonstrate how much their support means to all of us at the Club."
"We are confident that the direction our Club is headed in will mean many opportunities for celebration in the near future, and in the meantime we are committed to expressing our gratitude to those who have offered us their unwavering support."
The Bulldogs will line-up for the match in the 2023 Members' Jersey which features the names of almost 7,000 blue and white supporters and is dedicated to the 21,000+ strong Pack.
